In the blink of an eye, it has entered November, and the weather is freezing and dripping into ice.
Due to the cold weather, the armor is difficult to control and the bow is difficult to control, and the armies of all walks of life have died down one after another, nesting in the barracks to recuperate, and then decide the winner when the weather warms up.
Liu Che's envoy carried the holy decree of canonizing Li Shimin as the king of Tang, trekked all the way through Jizhou, Youzhou, Liaodong and other places, traveled at a speed of 400 miles a day, and took about 20 days to arrive at Wang Jiancheng, the capital of Li and Tang.
After listening to Liu Che's holy decree, Li Shimin couldn't help but look up to the sky and laugh: "Haha, this Liu Ji is really beyond his strength, I am the emperor of the Tang Dynasty, and I will dominate the monarch of the whole world in the future, how can I be canonized by him as a vassal king, cut off the ear of the envoy, and give it to Liu Ji as a return gift."
With Li Shimin's scolding, in the screams of the messenger killing pigs, two ears were cut off and placed in a wooden box as a gift to Liu Che.
Although he lost his ear, at least he kept his ear, and the envoy didn't care about the pain, so he was so frightened that he left Wang Jiancheng as fast as possible and embarked on the journey back to Luoyang.
After the envoy of the Western Han Dynasty left, Qin Hui privately asked to see Li Shimin, and said: "Your Majesty, Liu Hui's move is intended to muddy the world, so as to fish in troubled waters and profit from it."
He not only gave you the title of king, but also gave Li Ji and Li Mu both governors the county marquis, although His Majesty treated both governors well, but he was afraid that the people's hearts were not enough to swallow the elephant, and the two governors were ambitious under the stimulation of Liu Ji.
Therefore, please your majesty beat a lot, lest the two of them breed ambition."
"There is no suspicion in employing people, and there is no need to suspect people.
I treat Er Li Tui's heart and entrust him with military power, but it is expected that they will not breed two hearts.
Li Shimin stroked his beard and was not impressed by Qin Hui's proposal.
Qin Hui continued: "Liu Bang's treatment of Han Xin's treatment of how to hand over millions of people to Han Xin and teach them to the king of Chu is not insignificant; But Han Xin still breeds two hearts and wavers.
It can be seen that people's hearts are not enough to swallow elephants, and it is the nature of all people to have Longfu and look back at Shu.
Although this sentence was said by Liu Biao, Chen thought it was very reasonable. ” Li Shimin frowned and groaned: "I have my own plans in my heart, you go down" After Qin Hui left, Li Shimin paced back and forth in the main hall, and after thinking about it for a long time, he wrote a holy decree and decided to let Li Ji and Li Mu exchange troops.
After the letter was sent, he suddenly reversed himself and sent a fast horse to chase it back, as if it had not happened.
"Don't use suspicious people, don't use suspicious people.
If I am so suspicious, it will definitely make Li Ji and Li Mu uneasy, so I should continue to choose to trust them," Li Shimin tore the recovered letter to shreds and muttered to himself in his heart.
Although he did not let Er Li exchange troops, Li Shimin was also worried about the situation of supporting the army and respecting himself, so he sent the clan Li Mi and his cousin Li Ce to Youzhou respectively to secretly monitor the situation in the name of the counselor's military.
In the past few years, Li Shimin has studied the political model of the Eastern Han Dynasty, implemented the imperial examination system in Goryeo, and promoted Li Mi, Li Shanchang and other civil officials.
He also implemented the martial arts system, recruited Li Keyong, a hero, and several of his henchmen and fierce generals, the national strength is thriving, and the military soldiers are strong and strong, which makes Li Shimin believe that he will always win the Central Plains one day.
A few days ago, Li Shimin received a request for help from his ally Oda Nobunaga, requesting that a naval army be sent into the East China Sea to cut off the heavy supply of the Han army's naval divisions.
Li Shimin gladly complied with it, and then ordered Yi Sunsin to lead the sailors to move to Tamna County on the coast, waiting for an opportunity.
Liu Che's envoy spent more than 20 days returning to Luoyang with his entourage and relayed Li Shimin's words to Liu Che.
Liu Che was furious, reproached the envoy for insulting his mission, ordered beheading, and scolded Li Shimin for ignorance of current affairs.
Li Shimin did not accept the canonization, but Cao Cao, who had already returned to Yecheng, sent Kuai Liang to Luoyang as an envoy, agreeing that the two sides would form an alliance to support each other and jointly fight against the increasingly powerful Liu Wei.
As the days passed, the snowflakes flew, the general trend of the world temporarily settled down, and the princes from all walks of life seemed to be dormant and entered hibernation.
Dou Ying was appointed as Shang Shuling, overseeing the political affairs of the Western Han Dynasty, in addition to the military generals, the assassins, Taishou, and ministers of state in various places were under his jurisdiction.
This made Dou Ying feel deeply lacking in energy, so he asked Liu Che to open the government and recruit staff, and Liu Che happily complied.
Dou Ying got the approval of the Son of Heaven, so he posted notices in various counties and counties under the rule of the Western Han Dynasty to recruit people with lofty ideals to serve the country.
Those students who are interested in making a career have come to vote, and there is an endless stream of carp crossing the river.
In the early morning of this day, a one-armed Confucian student wearing a hat and a cyan robe came to the door of Dou Mansion to ask for a meeting: "The villain Chen Guan heard that Dou Shangshu was recruiting virtuous people, and he came to defect. ” The official guarding the door looked Chen Gong up and down, shook his head and said: "Hurry up, hurry up, are you doing good deeds when Lord Dou is doing good deeds, why do people want to come to Shangshu Mansion to eat you, a person with a broken arm, what kind of ability do you have?"
"It's not right for this lord to say this, during the Warring States Period, Sun Bin was tortured and couldn't walk.
However, he helped King Qi to break through the Wei State, killed Pang Juan, and assisted King Qi Wei to achieve hegemony.
What's more, I'm just missing an arm, and there are countless things I can do, so please don't judge people by their appearance.
Chen Gong carried one hand on his back and argued with reason.
The official looked impatient, raised his saber, and was about to knock: "Hurry up, Hugh wants to entertain me here on a cold day, otherwise don't blame the uncle for being polite" "What is the noisy shouting in the early morning?"
With a shout, the housekeeper of the Dou Mansion strode out, and when he saw the one-armed Chen Gonghou, he couldn't help but be stunned: "This, isn't this Lord Chen Gongtai, why did he become like this?"
"Shhh When he was in Chang'an, Lü Bu was attached to Liu Che, and Chen Gong, as Lü Bu's advisor, had a very personal relationship with Dou Ying.
So after the arm injury healed, Chen Gong was the first to look for Dou Ying.
Steward Dou knew that Dou Ying had a good relationship with Chen Gong, so he immediately led the way and led Chen Gong to see Dou Ying.
"Uh, it turned out to be Lord Dou's old friend, I really don't know Taishan" Looking at the Chen Palace, who was respectfully allowed into the Shangshu Mansion by the housekeeper, the official who guarded the door looked annoyed and regretted.
I'm afraid that I will accidentally smash my job.
After Dou Ying got up, he moved his body and was reading the documents from Yongzhou in the study, when he suddenly heard the housekeeper say that Chen Gong asked to see him, and hurriedly ordered him to be brought into the study to talk.
When Chen Gong came to the front, he was surprised to find that Chen Gong had broken an arm.

"I heard that after Lu Bu's defeat, Gongtai was captured, why did he suddenly return to Luoyang and become one-armed again" Dou Ying hurriedly ordered the housekeeper to serve tea, and asked with a puzzled expression.
Chen Gong shook his head and sighed: "It's hard to say."
"Don't worry, take your time," Dou Ying motioned to Chen Gong to drink tea with a suspicious expression.
Chen Gong took a sip of tea and said, "After being captured, Liu Wei sent someone to escort me to Jinling.
Along the way, the officials were greedy for alcohol and drunk, and I took the opportunity to escape.
On the way back to Luoyang, he passed through the checkpoint, because he did not clear the customs documents, he was chased and killed by the official who guarded the door, and one of his arms was cut off, and he was lucky enough to rob the horses of the passing merchants, and escaped with his life and returned to Luoyang. ” Seeing that Chen Gong had become a one-armed, Dou Ying was no longer suspicious and comforted: "Although Gongtai is missing an arm, it is a great luck to be able to save his life and return."
The imperial court is the time to employ people, and with the talent of the public platform, it can become the mainstay, and I will be used by Your Majesty as a book. ” "Thank you, Brother Dou, I will have to rely on my brother more in the future, and I will be content to be a staff member in your mansion" Chen Gong bowed and thanked Dou Ying.
Dou Ying hurriedly and modestly: "Gongtai's words are really tormenting Dou Yingye, your talent is not under me, how can I cook chicken in Niu Ding, I should guarantee your majesty to enter the court as an official" Under Dou Ying's arrangement, Chen Gong temporarily stayed in Shangshu Mansion and promoted Chen Guan to Liu Che as Guanglu Doctor.
Liu Che had a lot of contact with Chen Gong when he was in Chang'an, and he recognized Chen Gong's talent very much, and after listening to Dou Ying's account of Chen Gong's escape experience, he ordered Chen Gong to be brought to the palace to see him.
Seeing that Chen Gong was really missing an arm, he was no longer suspicious, and told Chen Gong to recuperate from his injuries and contribute more to the Luoyang Imperial Court in the future.
"Thank you, Your Majesty, the palace will do its best, and after death" Chen Gong knelt on the ground and thanked Liu Che for his trust.
Since then, Chen Gong has come to Luoyang Palace every day to go to the early court, discuss national affairs in the court, rack his brains about how to attack the city and plunder the land, and argue with his colleagues.
This made Dou Ying happy in his eyes, this confidant and friend finally lived up to his trust, and Liu Che also nodded frequently, agreeing with Chen Gong's point of view.
In a blink of an eye, he entered the month of Layue, and after noon on this day, Chen Gong came to the imperial study to ask to see Liu Che: "Your Majesty, the minister was escorted from Jiangling to Jinling on the way, and he has been secretly observing the terrain of the Eastern Han Dynasty.
During this period of time, a topographical map of Jiangdong has been drawn and presented to His Majesty."
"Bring it to me" Liu Che didn't look up, and while looking at the folds on the table, he commanded the eunuch beside him.
Chen Gong replied: "This scroll is about five zhang long, and it needs to be stretched out by Gonggong Liang and me so that His Majesty can see it."
The eunuch surnamed Liang didn't think much about it, and as soon as he agreed, he and Chen Gong each grabbed a scroll and stretched it out to both sides.
Eunuch Liang didn't think much about it, but Chen Gong had already calculated it ten thousand times in his heart.
It seemed unintentional, but in fact, he quietly approached Liu Che, who was sitting behind the imperial book case and had just raised his head.
"Chen Gongtai's map has taken a lot of effort" Facing the nearly five-zhang long topographic map, Liu Che was amazed.
"I don't have as much effort as you as a traitor who deceives the king" Chen Gong snorted, and suddenly pulled out a fish intestine short sword from the scroll, stabbing at Liu Che with lightning speed.
In a flash of cold light, the sharp fish intestine sword instantly pierced Liu Che's chest, and came out through his back, which made Liu Che stunned, and hissed: "Chen Gong, you dare to stab me" With more and more skills, it is becoming more and more difficult to judge the strength of generals, and on the weekend, the swordsman will analyze the strength of each general, make a detailed ranking, and send it to the WeChat public account.
